N’Assembly Complex
... As NFIC Bill Passes Third Reading

By Muhammad Bello

The House of Representatives Tuesday directed the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) to suspend forthwith its policy requiring prospective corps members to pay N4,000 as registration fee before accessing their call-up letters.

Prompted by a motion sponsored by Hon. Hassan Saleh (PDP, Benue), it also instituted a probe into the alleged fee

This is as the Nigerian Financial Intelligence Centre (NFIC) bill passed third reading on the floor of the House.

According to Saleh (PDP, Benue), the "recent advertorials in some national newspapers that with effect from 2015, corps members will be required to register online with a fee of N4,000 to be able to access their call-up letters as an alternative to their having to go to their various schools to collect the letters."

He said "as laudable as the idea of sending call-up letters though the internet may be, the decision requiring fresh graduates to cough out N4,000 to access letters appears insensitive and exploitative."

Deputy Speaker Emeka Ihedioha, upon a petition by Hon. Uzo Azubuike (PDP, Abia) that the public petitions' committee he chairs was already working on the matter, ruled that committee on youth development and the sponsor of the motion be invited to be part of the panel that will conduct a session on the matter.

They want to collect their own share of it and nothing more. When the NYSC officials settle them, you will begin to hear another story from our dishonourable legislooters.
.
What has happened to the suspension of FRSC number plate and drivers' license acquisition fee?
What has happened Minister for Interior; Abba Moro after the ill- fated Nigeria Immigration service recruitment probe? Instead He was allowed to add another medium of swindling the populace through international passport application address verification fee.
What about the " #2000 Address Verification" fee paid by applicants for Nigerian international passport?
.
Somebody should please wake me up when they are ready to make their latent intention about this fee's suspension manifest.

haaaaaaaaaa Thank God i didnt pay!

Yes, i read something pertaining to it on twitter now. Can op just put this on fp, so pple can know and comment. Plsssssssssss oooooooooooooooi

I dunno if this should be good or bad news
I guess it's bad news for peeps who paid
For their mind dem be like 'who send me message'

Another money made for Ogas at the top just like immigration money.
Thank God I never planned paying.

hmm

What of those Who has paid, will there money be reimbursed?

So what happens to those who have already paid because some intending corps members for the next batch have paid.

This is exactly what I have been waiting for,d bible says "no soldier goes to war at his own expense". Hw can u ask us to pay for calling us? Na we call our self? By the way I dnt c APC leading any protest on this issue which is not good enough.this are issue that should spread like #bringbackourgirls campaign. FP tinz; what a way to start a new month

Thank God oooo,its a very silly decision by nysc officials...instead of dem to increase allowee

Ademat7: Hi

hello?

Good news.
For those that have paid,a bill shall be passed for a refund may be after 2015 elections.

Mtshewww...


Like I care

IT'S GOOD HERE!

Nothing to worry, NYSC. There are many ways to kill a rat. Just take it from their monthly Allawee and amortise it over the 11 months of service. N400 per month (amounting N4,000) would do. LOL.

Post this to Tinubu's website and receive N1,000,000 instantly. Be sure you would be conscripted into BH, for BH currently lacks foot soldiers now due to near-annihilation.

A very good development.

Samiceman: hello?

what's up?

Scrap the scheme, or reduce the age for service to 23yrs. If the NYSC wants to take 4000 from Corp members, it's not rocket science. Like someone said, alawee dey.

Good

FRSC number plate comes to mind... A country whr laws are not abided..

God Bless Nigeria





My dear country

buh seriously,....sometimes these lawmakers do save us frm some preposterous policies some awkwardly greedy Nigerians do bring up....
jxt lyk dey did in Sanusi's 5000 naira note...
Kudos 2 dem and
HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY 2 YU ALL...!

Nigerians and their penny wise, pounds foolish mentality. I guess it is easier to travel to ones school to collect call up letter than to pay N4,000 online from the comfort of ones home? I thought people should have pushed for reduction in the fee rather than outright suspension or cancellation.

Thnk GOD i didnt pay. for dos dat paid, pls just put it in prayer or take it as money u normal give to smalli
